This is why I love Gandi. True quality service... I bought my first domains with them and never tried elsewhere.

Hi,

You can believe it!

The trouble I had trying to get a domain name transfer to Gandi.net from Network Solutions. They (Network Solutions) nearly had me in a fit. Endless hours on the phone to United States talking and emailing DNS-admins who did not, and would not release the glue records. So... When I heard this news I could well believe it. Bunch of crooks.

Thanks for the great post! I've always trusted Gandi with domain name lookups and have steered away from NetSol and other companies that, because of their overload on advertisements and multiple upcharging opportunities, appear greedy for my money. After reading this, I'm glad I have followed my intuition.

The domain industry, present company excluded of course, has become a haven for shady practices. Instead of providing customers with a decent _registrar_ service, their raison d'etre, many have gone into the "businesss" of tasting and squatting and so on.

Registerfly is a perfect example of the arrogance and ethics that have taken hold of the industry (you can follow the case on the ICANN blog). Personally, I had a few domains with them, but got out, after some effort, before things truly fell apart. To add insult to injury, they continue to send several renewal emails a day for domains that have not been under their dubious management for over a year! Even the quality of their spam is thus lacking.

Registrars need to get involved with a governing body (not ICANN, aka the US Dept. of Commerce and Fraud) to introduce some accountability. Otherwise, it's the subprime saga all over again -- no oversight, quick profits for the few, and meltdown.

I always suspected this with NetSol and that is exactly why I always use Gandi to check the domains Thanks for 'doing no evil'!
